Unhappy That Dems Still In Charge In Newington

Yes I voted yesterday, but why? Newington is a small town like many in this state. Voters here are almost all Democrats, leaving the Republicans with little hope of winning anything of importance.

As in most small towns, the majority of the budget is for the schools. That leaves very little to run the rest of town's services.

Recently the unionized workers for the town and the schools got a pay raise. In the real world, employees are being fired because their jobs are being outsourced or the company is moving out of state.

The only thing residents of any town can count on is increased taxes every year, no matter what. I heard Newington wants to build a sports complex costing millions of tax dollars and they also want to modernize much of town hall. It just never ends.
